Shorty Reezly takes us on a wild night in his latest visual for tracks "Deathwish Pt2/Wild Out"

Shorty Reezly takes us on a wild night on the town in his latest visual for “Deathwish Pt2/Wild Out.”

Shorty Reezly bleeds a raw, carefree New York energy in his new joint visual, which features him rapping over a drill beat and delivering bars.

Now, the New York artist is back, this time with a follow-up to his 2020 single, “,Deathwish,” and he does not miss, following it up with another dope visual and raw NY energy that we love to see from Shorty. The artist released the joint visual for his two tracks, “Deathwish Pt2” and “Wild Out,” making for one exciting visual by joining two songs together, making for one dope experience.

“When I had first released my project/song ‘Death wish’ it blew up more than I had expected and it only felt right to do a part 2,” he said. “With the song ‘Wild Out,’ I had it saved but unreleased for some time. I decided that the right way to end 2021 was to drop both songs together.”

The artist combines two tracks, “Deathwish Pt2” and “Wild Out,” to create one hell of a night on the town with his crew. The video opens with the unreleased track, “Deathwish Pt2,” currently not on any streaming platforms, featuring distorted vintage edits in the opening scene of the music video, aligning with the grittiness of Shorty Reezly’s Drill sound, and making for one hell of an opening. Shorty Reezly is in and outside of the party bus most of the visual, accompanied by his crew and some fellow women; the video is just one fun ass night between friends. The visual for the songs feel “raw,” like Shorty Reezly just invited us along for the night, making for a thrilling night in New York.

One impressive and innovative thing the video does is gradually pick up the tempo, starting with the intro of the first song being more laid back, “Deathwish Pt2,” and then leading into “Wild Out,” the more ominous trap-influenced beat. That gradually progressed, as “Wild Out” from camera movements to transitions and even the visual distortion parallels the song and beat, creating an engaging and dope visual experience.

The releases do not stop here, as Shorty Reezly has some new stuff on the way, with a single in February and a project coming soon. We can not wait to see what Shorty Reezly has in store for us!

“February 14th, Valentine’s Day, I will be dropping my new single, ‘Take it Slow,’ for all the ladies! I also have an EP dropping soon,” he said.

What city are you from/ Where are you based now?

I’m from the Bay Area of Northern California and now I’m based in The Bay and Los Angeles. I’m going to school in Texas, remote though, because of Covid.

What is your artist name? What is your real name? How did you get your artist name?

My artist name is Austin Dean Ashford. That is also my real name. I used to have a stage name but when all of my different art forms started to integrate together I thought it would be easier to just use my real name.

How would you describe your sound to readers who may not be familiar with you?

I would describe my sound as a pioneer of the Island-Trap genre, my vibe merges ukulele, Afro-Latin sounds, and Bay Area swagger. My lyricism and flow is a blend of modern boom bap and chant music. My sound is comprehensively poetic, wavy, and bouncy-punk. I use a jazz effect that is Fluid, witty, rhythmic, and bars.

What’s one reason you are passionate about music and what inspires you?

One reason I’m passionate about music is because it very much is medicine and a healing remedy to help me operate in an unpredictable world. Life has thrown a lot of obstacles my way and I find that music can embody a wide range of emotions and can articulate my perspective. What inspires me is everyday life and the multiple artists I’m around everyday. I agree with the statement that “everything is a performance” which would allow me to be inspired by the performance of a teacher, or the performance of my family, etc. I’m also inspired by black creators who have balance between their everyday lives as well as being a creator.

Who are some of your main musical influences?

Some of my main musical influences are Bob Marley, Lauryn Hill, Nina Simone, John Coltrane, Donald Glover, Lin Manuel-Miranda, Kendrick Lamar.

Tell us the name of the project you are currently promoting? What inspired this project?

I’m currently promoting my new single which is the second single on my upcoming sophomore project. The song is called “Sleep Angel”. “Sleep Angel” was inspired by a song I would sing on the ukulele to grandmother before she passed away. For my undergraduate degree I studied at the HBCU Wiley College and visited my grandmother in Texas and sang her this song. This song is a nice lullaby and my mom’s favorite song of mine too so she is excited.

Date that this project dropped or is set to drop?

“Sleep Angel” is set to drop Jan 26th with a music and lyric video. The song is being released on my grandmother’s birthday too..

What is this project about in your own words?

“Sleep Angel “ is about how we connect with spirits on this planet that we still feel connected to. This is about our guardian angels who work so hard to keep us protected and how they even need some rest sometimes.

What’s next for you? Are you working on any upcoming projects we should be on the lookout for?

I will continue to be a PhD student in interdisciplinary fine arts at Texas tech university through the pandemic. I am releasing my sophomore album, “Durags N Bonnets” aka Sophisti-Ratchet 2,” in March with a release listening event. This summer I’ll be going on a world tour starting in Ecuador and ending in Europe. This album is the 2nd portion of a trilogy that will end next year in March.

What message do you hope fans take away from your music and from this project?

I hope fans take away the sense of radical rest and have a lullaby to help them and their dreams during the pandemic. I hope anybody who knows my story of high school dropout to PhD student /artist knows that what is meant for you will not pass you up no matter how long it takes. Also, it is ok to rest or nap everyone and then.
